This is to let you know that the Stem-n-Leaf Tiny House Plans are on a New Year Sale. Not sure if you remember, but the designer, Adam Rasmussen, of tmbrz, shared some of his designs with us back in 2015 as part of our 8×12 tiny house design contest back then (that was fun!).
Anyway, not long after that, Adam designed and developed the Stem-n-Leaf Tiny House which we featured here. It’s been several years now, and so, if you liked that design now is a really great time to invest in the plans so you can build it later because they’re on sale for 80% off which brings the price down quite a bit. The basic plans, for example are only $20 down from $100. The full plans are $35 down from $175, and the plans + model (which include SketchUp files), are only $40 down from $200. Pretty awesome! Anyway, if you want to learn more about it below and spread the word. Thanks.

From the outside, it looks like a classic tiny stone cabin.
At 350 sq. ft. it’s tiny to some, small to others, and spacious for few.
When you step inside you unexpectedly feel like you’re in a modern, woodsy, and yet rustic micro cabin all at the same time.
I encourage you to enjoy the tour of this modern/classic tiny stone cabin below so you can see what I mean. And let me know your opinion on it in the comments below.
